PSI: little improvement

Cool, I hope this fixes SmartIntroduce's parentheses problem :)

Hello All,
Just to let you know, we've modified PSI write interface a little:
as you know when you replaced one expression to another parenthesis were
added automatically when needed. However they were not removed when not
needed,
so the clients had to deal with this themselves. This is no longer the
case:)
Also the fix is fully backward compatible, i.e. if you remove parenthesis by
hand, your code still works.

Friendly,
Eugene.

Umm, what problem do you exactly mean?

Unfortunately, since the plugin doesn't do any PSI-write operations,
it won't be fixed by this change :)

IG/IPP have been doing this by hand since the beginning, as the parentheses-insertion you describe wasn't documented...

I constantly extract expressions which end up like this when I use
SmartIntroduce:

String s = ((String) obj);

I think it's because the original expression was ((String) obj).something();
